Abstract: Disclosed is a sports training glasses for assisting a person training in a sporting endeavor requiring hand/eye coordination to focus on a specific object, such as a baseball or golf ball. The sports training glasses are comprised of a frame having a centrally disposed bridge. The bridge may be designed to rest directly on a wearer's nose, or to have engaged with it a nosepiece for resting on a wearer's nose. A pair of temple arms are articulated at either end of the frame by a flexible, integral hinge made of a shape memory material. A pair of opaque lenses are disposed along the lower edge of the frame, one opaque lens on either side of the bridge. An elongated slot, aligned horizontally, is disposed within each opaque lens. A sliding member engages with each opaque lens permitting horizontal translation behind the elongated slot. An aperture is disposed within the sliding member, within which may be disposed a transparent lens. A separate nosepiece may engage with the bridge to provide better comfort.

Abstract: A pair of sports training eyeglasses is provided for training a user to keep his/her eye on a ball while hitting either a stationary ball, e.g. in golf or hockey, or a moving ball, e.g., in baseball and softball. The pair of sports training eyeglasses have a pair of lenses, each lens having an opaque peripheral region and a viewing aperture, and a frame having an elongated bridge bar having opposite ends, a pair of opposing temporal side members extending from respective ends of the elongated bridge bar, a means for adjusting the position of each temporal side member in relation to the elongated bridge bar, a movably nose piece, a means for removably attaching each lens to the elongated bridge bar, wherein the position of each lens is adjustable in relation to the nose piece, and a means for locking the position of each lens on the elongated bridge bar. A first set of lenses is provided having an oval shaped viewing aperture and is used in training a user to hit a moving ball.

Abstract: A pair of eyeglasses is provided for sports training, and more specifically for training the player to keep the player's eyes on an approaching ball for batting or for swinging a racket. The pair of glasses, have a position adjustable pair of lenses each having an opaque peripheral region and a transparent central region. Initial adjustment of the lenses is achieved utilizing a removable cover element overlaying the transparent central region wherein the cover element has a viewing aperture. A method is provided wherein the player wears a pair of the glasses, adjusts the positions of the lenses to correspond to the positions of the pupillary disks of the player until the player can view a single focal element through each aperture, removing the cover elements from the lenses, and batting at a moving ball while wearing the eyeglasses.

Abstract: The invention temperature controlled package comprises a case having sidewalls that form a closed perimeter; a cover; and a base having an input surface and an output surface. The sidewalls are integrally coupled to the base input surface to define an interior region. A heatsink has a top surface and a bottom surface. The heatsink bottom surface is attached to the input surface of a thermoelectric cooler. The bottom surface of the thermoelectric cooler is coupled to the base input surface of the case. The thermoelectric cooler responds to a control signal to move heat from the thermoelectric cooler input surface to the thermoelectric cooler output surface. In a first alternative embodiment, a laser diode coupled to the heat sink responds to an electrical input signal to providing an optical laser output signal. The optical output of the laser diode is coupled via a optical fiber through a fiberoptic feedthrough in a sidewall. The interior region is filled with xenon gas.
